Abstract: A vocoder based voice recognizer recognizes a spoken word using linear prediction coding (LPC) based, vocoder data without completely reconstructing the voice data. The recognizer generates at least one energy estimate per frame of the vocoder data and searches for word boundaries in the vocoder data using the associated energy estimates. If a word is found, the LPC word parameters are extracted from the vocoder data associated with the word and recognition features are calculated from the extracted LPC word parameters. Finally, the recognition features are matched with previously stored recognition features of other words, thereby to recognize the spoken word.

Abstract: The path of operation is divided
automatically by detecting variation in the
direction of operation of a machine and stored in
time series in a buffer (1) as an NC program of
one block (S25-S27, S33-S34). The selection of
auxiliary function operations is detected in
parallel with the storage (S8) and the commands
of the detected auxiliary function operation are
stored in the buffer (1) in time series (S21). If the
selection of auxiliary function operations is
detected when the operating direction is identical,
the path of operation is divided automatically
with reference to the mechanical position at the
moment of selecting auxiliary function
operations, the path of operation up to the
moment of detecting the selection is stored in the
buffer (1) as an NC program of one block, and
the commands of auxiliary function operation are
stored (S19-S21).

Abstract: The present invention provides a continuous casting
method in which vibration is given to molten metal by a
shifting magnetic field so that the equi-axed crystal
ratio can be enhanced and the equi-axed crystals can be
made fine without generating surface defects caused by
powder trapping. Further, the present invention provides
an apparatus to which the continuous casting method is
applied. Furthermore, the present invention provides a
cast slab produced by the above method and apparatus.
The method of casting molten metal comprises the steps
of: pouring molten metal into a mold and solidifying it
in the mold while applying an electromagnetic force,
which is generated by an electromagnetic coil arranged in
the proximity of a molten metal pool in the mold, upon
the molten metal; and vibrating the molten metal, which
has been solidified in the mold or is being drawn out
downward from the mold while being cooled and solidified,
by a shifting magnetic field generated by the
electromagnetic coil so that the molten metal is
accelerated by a high intensity and a low intensity of
acceleration in a range not exceeding a predetermined
flow velocity when the directional vectors of high
acceleration and low acceleration in the same direction
or in the opposite direction are combined with each
other.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method for producing optically active hydroxycarboxylic acid monomers by auto-degradation of polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs). In particular, the present invention provides a method for producing hydroxycarboxylic acid monomers (mostly optically active in (R)-(-)-configuration) comprising the steps of: (a) synthesizing and accumulating PHAs by culturing various microorganisms; and (b) preparing optically active hydroxycarboxylic acids which are monomers of PHAs, by auto-degradation of PHAs by keeping the cultured microorganism in a degradation solution such as water, salt solution, mixture of water and organic solvents, and buffer solution. The present invention also provides a method for the separation of the prepared (R)-(-)-hydroxycarboxylic acids using liquid chromatography (LC) or high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and also provides further purification method by removing impurities from the purely separated (R)-(-)-hydroxycarboxylic acids by organic solvent extraction and powder-making process of drying the purified hydroxycarboxylic acids. The present method is economical since hydroxycarboxylic acids can be efficiently produced with high purity and yield by simple process. Also, the present method is environmentally friendly since organic solvents, which are required in large amounts in conventional methods, are used only in minimal amounts in the present invention.

IPC: C08L3/02
Filed: 1998-11-16
Abstract: The invention relates to a component for producing thermoplastically moldable, biodegradable and bright polymer mixtures based on starch, with good dimensional stability in water. The dimensional stability in water and the biodegradability of said component are adjustable and the component can be used for producing sheet materials, semi-finished or finished products, for example for packagings, containers, articles required in horticultural nurseries, and for other purposes. The invention, furthermore, relates to a process for producing the component from polyvinyl acetate and alkali silicate. A suspension of polyvinyl acetate is hydrolized and saponified in the batch process in the presence of catalytic additions such as, in particular glycerol, by adding the alkali silicate and hydroxides at high temperatures. Organosilicates of high homogeneity and fineness are formed. Additions of said component in small amounts have a positive effect on the phase compatibility of the hydrophilic starch and a hydrophobic polymer such as polyvinyl acetate in the course of preparation of the blend in the extruder. The properties of the extruded products are substantially enhanced.
